Journal Article
Oloo, J. O., & Shrira, V. I. (2023). A novel (2+1)-dimensional nonlinear evolution equation for weakly stratified free-surface boundary layers. Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 973, Article A40. https://doi.org/10.1017/jfm.2023.773

To get an insight into the dynamics of the oceanic surface boundary layer we develop an asymptotic model of the nonlinear dynamics of linearly decaying three-dimensional long-wave perturbations in weakly stratified boundary-layer flows. Although in n... Read More about A novel (2+1)-dimensional nonlinear evolution equation for weakly stratified free-surface boundary layers.

Axisymmetric necking of a circular electrodes-coated dielectric membrane (2023)
Journal Article
Fu. (2023). Axisymmetric necking of a circular electrodes-coated dielectric membrane. Mechanics of Materials, 104645 - 104645. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mechmat.2023.104645

We investigate the stability of a circular electrodes-coated dielectric membrane under the combined action of an electric field and all-round in-plane tension. It is known that such a membrane is susceptible to the limiting point instability (also kn... Read More about Axisymmetric necking of a circular electrodes-coated dielectric membrane.

A one-dimensional model for axisymmetric deformations of an inflated hyperelastic tube of finite wall thickness (2023)
Journal Article
Fu. (2023). A one-dimensional model for axisymmetric deformations of an inflated hyperelastic tube of finite wall thickness. Journal of the Mechanics and Physics of Solids, 175, Article 105276. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmps.2023.105276

We derive a one-dimensional (1d) model for the analysis of bulging or necking in an inflated hy?perelastic tube of finite wall thickness from the three-dimensional (3d) finite elasticity theory by
